Cob
Personalised gifts for Cob owners
The family horse for half the country — cobs do the school-master job for a generation.
The cob is a type rather than a strict breed — the umbrella covers Welsh Section D Cobs, Traditional Cobs, Gypsy Cobs (sometimes called Vanners), and Irish Draughts of cobby build. The unifying traits are stocky body, deep girth, full feathered legs, and a temperament steady enough that half of Britain's riding-school children learnt on one. The Show Cob class at county shows is one of the most-watched.
For cob owners the horse is usually the family's horse — hacking, hunting in the slow field, Pony Club, riding-club one-day events. Bays, piebalds, and skewbalds are the volume colours; solid blacks and greys turn up too. We ship more A3 prints to cob owners than any other variant — the breed's scale fits the larger format, and the typography frames the horse as a family member rather than a competition asset.

Questions about Cob gifts
Do you make personalised gifts for Cob owners specifically?
Every gift we make is personalised — your horse's name, breed, and yard go onto the print, mug, tote, t-shirt, phone case, or portrait canvas. Cob is one of 20+ breeds we recognise.
What are the most popular gifts for Cob owners?
For Cob owners, the portrait canvas is the highest-value piece — generated from your photo, capturing the specific horse rather than a generic cob. The name print in A4 or A3 is the most common gift overall.
Can I include the yard name on a Cob gift?
Yes — every product takes an optional yard name in addition to the horse's name and breed. It prints in italic below the main name.
How long do Cob gifts take to arrive?
1–3 working days production for prints, mugs, totes, t-shirts, and phone cases (then 2–5 days UK delivery). Portrait canvases take 7–10 working days total because we generate the artwork before printing.
